Hi Andre,

The P570-H series.

I guess these Thai/Chinese knobs are a copy of the P570-H series.  They
are the same diameter at the base (15mm), almost the same height (15.1mm
not counting the line, rather than the Re'an 14.6mm) and similar
diameter at the top (11.8mm rather than 11.0mm).  The Re'an knobs look
like their colours and indicator lines are better, and they have blue.


  Cheers
